New Delhi: In the wake of workers at smartphone maker Oppo’s facility in Greater Noida testing positive for Covid-19 this week, Indian corporates are waking up to a new deadly reality - dealing with the risk of infections as they restart businesses amid the eased lockdown.
Oppo's factory production is off limits and so is a construction facility for a Vivo factory, after nine and two workers respectively tested covid positive, which serves as a grim reminder that such an outcome might await any company, industry executives said.
While the government has issued a list of standard operating procedures for employees coming to work, many companies are taking steps of their own to mitigate the chances of such a disaster, they said.
